Has anyone received their stimulus check by mail? How long does it take?

The IRS website says mine was mailed out January 6th. I've been trying to figure out approximately how long it'll take to arrive in the mail.... I've seen 3 days .... I've seen 14 days... and now I'm seeing 3 or 4 WEEKS!!! that is ridiculous... I dont understand why it would take up to 4 weeks for it to arrive in the mail if it was already sent out! But how long did it take for you all?

It would normally take just a few days, but mail is much slower because of the pandemic so that may be why it is being held up.
